Light Tower Palace's sovereign court had been in a stalemate for quite a while. King Reshan was demanding an immediate agreement to the engagement between the First Princess and the Prince of barbarians, and the Su'ne of the court were demanding to not give in.
Su'Datheram Derzev Hellfryne had a strong headache. The session broke for lunch and he went back to his palace to eat in peace and silence.
When had things become so complicated? The matter of engagement was a yes or no situation, yet they were actually walking in so many circles just to soften the blow of a rejection. Just what exactly did the integrity of the sovereign court stand for?
The Sovereign returned to his residence and sat in his room, massaging his head, to wait for lunch. It was finally silent and a cool breeze helped to lower his anger somewhat.
